  6. I just discovered that all I needed to do was set my 'adjust desktop size and position' to the 'use Nvidia scaling' setting instead of 'use my display's built in scaling' and now I can adjust the image sharpening!!! thanks goes to jg0001's latest post:

    "Annoyingly, the tab "ADJUST DESKTOP COLOR SETTINGS" are often lost. Alternatively, what happens is that under "2. Choose how color is set", the default becomes "Other applications control color settings", which effectively eliminates your prior brightness/contrast/ gamma AND digital vibrance settings. Thus, if you notice your screen & game look less well defined and lacking in VIBRANCE, double check that the "Use Nvidia settings" box is flicked.
    Please note that this is simialr but NOT THE SAME as the section labeled "Adjust video color settings" which is different."

    It was my own settings that were the problem.I am so happy that finally, everything is adjustable. Thanks again to jg0001 for being on top of it! (For those of you who want to know the best settings for their Nvidia card, he posted a guide for Nvidia cards.)

  7. Sin, I have Windows XP and a 7900 GS also, and just finished installing/testing the 190.38 drivers and they work great for me. (I had the 185.85. I tried the 186.18 but it was total crap on my machine. There was not even a control panel so I stuck with the 185.85 till now.)
    I always use the same routine when I install new drivers.
    1. uninstall Nvidia drivers
    2. reboot into safe modeand stop the puter from intalling anything.
    4. use Driver Cleaner to remove all traces of old drivers
    5. reboot and stop puter from installing anything.
    6. install new Nvidia driver
    7. set preferences in control panel
    Ran CoH and it was great, as is internet connection time.
    One strange thing, however. On the control panel, the Image Sharpening was greyed out and was unusable. Now you can move the slider, but as soon as you set it and hit apply, it returns to 0. Before the series 180 drivers, this feature was not disabled. Other than that, the 190.38 are fine so far for me.
  8. LOL, houtie. With all your many smarts and good advice that have helped SO many people here, (including me) one brain fart every 5 years is allowed. You ROCK.
